About this Event
This session combines engaged listening with touch, guided by an audio tour of Gaza – from singing on the beach, to a beloved bookshop in Gaza City, to an aunt's farmland in Rafah. Participants can feel those words on a huge hand embroidered banner and leave written responses to communities speaking from a Gaza still under siege. Afterwards, join art collective Ambient Gaza and textile artist Rim Irscheid for a conversation on how we engage with Gazan life, push back against dehumanising media narratives, and co-create vocabulary for agency and hope.
100% of funds raised go to Gazan Aid see www.ambientgaza.org/#donate for more details.
Part of Sounding Towards, a five-month project transforming the gallery into a site for listening, sonic experimentation and conviviality.
